Apprentices: Loans
Asked by: Amanda Martin (Labour - Portsmouth North)
Friday 13th June 2025

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of introducing student loans for apprentices.

Answered by Janet Daby - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education)

Apprenticeships are jobs with training, allowing apprentices to earn a wage whilst getting hands-on industry experience. Apprenticeships training is funded by the government and by employers, meaning that apprentices do not have to pay towards the cost of their training. For this reason, apprentices are not eligible for student finance, but we remain committed to ensuring that apprentice wages support the attraction of talented individuals into apprenticeships.

On 1 April 2025, the Apprentice National Minimum Wage (ANMW) increased by 18% to £7.55 per hour, from £6.40, which will help to encourage more young people to upskill via apprenticeships. Apprentices under 19, or aged 19 and above and in the first year of their apprenticeship, are entitled to the ANMW. In all other cases, apprentices must receive at least the correct national minimum wage for their age, although many employers choose to pay more than the minimum.

This government also wants to ensure that more young people from disadvantaged backgrounds can undertake apprenticeships. We continue to pay a bursary of £3,000 to apprentices under the age of 25 who have been, or are, in local authority care. The bursary is paid in instalments over the first year of the apprenticeship, supporting care leavers as they transition into employment.

Select Committee Inquiry
12 Jun 2025
Higher Education and Funding: Threat of Insolvency and International Student
Education Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 31 Jul 2025)


The UK’s higher education sector is in trouble. Dozens of universities are making redundancies and cuts to courses, trying to stay afloat amid uncertainty over where their money is coming from. 

The Education Committee will look under the bonnet at what is going on. In a focused single evidence session on 8 April, the Committee examined the perfect storm bearing down on institutions, including fluctuations in domestic and international student numbers, pension contributions, and the rate of tuition fees. 

On 13 May the Committee decided it wished to pursue a series of mini-inquiries relating to higher education. It was decided that the first mini-inquiry would concentrate on the urgent issues of the threat of insolvency in the higher education sector and international students.
